Jeep is on the cusp of merging the Compass and Patriot crossovers into one new model.

According to Australia’s CarAdvice, Jeep will create a single model as a replacement for both the Compass and Patriot models. Currently, Jeep director Jim Morrison refers to it as the Compatriot, but while that name easily rolls off the tongue, it probably won’t make it onto the final model.

The new Jeep is expected to be revealed sometime next year and will hit dealers in 2017; it will slot between the Cherokee and Renegade in Jeep’s lineup.
